Some of this kind of thing will be because the Doscourse devs, as you
might imagine, are forum/web-first people while you and I are
email-first people. So they won't notice email shortcomings as readily.

That said, they do seem very engaged and willing to chase and fix bugs
if they can be identified.

There's certainly still an issue where some messages are not reliably
sent via email when the inbound needs-spam-review filter flags a
message/post, particularly the first post; they're fixing that right now
:-)

One day everything will be perfect!
